The Health Care Information Appliance Project
- The Health Care Information-Appliance Project
required the students to develop an informal
functional specification and then design and
implement a prototype Information Appliance (IA)
aimed at improving public health by helping
people become more directly involved in their own
health care. The IA should allow a person to
enter, access, display, store, and manipulate
information about health related issues.
